TODAY IS A SAD DAY

Today is Michael Jackson’s funeral…

It seems so final and there really is no turning back, no waking up from a bad dream. The amazing persona is gone forever and so is the genius and the talent, which could result in so many more wonderful projects. This we will never get a chance to experience.

What makes me really sad is the fact that the media are creating a circus even after the man has died. And there are so many people trying to profit in any way possible (and screw the ethics) from Jackson’s death and, I’m sure, his funeral as well. Nobody seems to remember the man who influenced so many all over the world, changed the way pop culture evolved and was the biggest icon in the history of music thus far, just to name a few of his numerous achievements.

It saddens me that in order to create some controversy and capitalize on that, the media are bringing all the dirt from his past into light again instead of letting the people who loved him grieve in peace. It reminds me brutally that it’s a cruel world we live in. And Michael Jackson was a soft-spoken man with a big heart who wanted to change the world for the better. If only people had let him… Perhaps now, finally, he will have some peace…
